Updated: 15 December 2017 52–1

Part 52 – Administrative Advices

General Law [52-0000] A number of Acts provide for notices to be forwarded to the Registrar for deposit and entry in the registry. Authority to enter advices in the registry is contained in ss. 29 and 34 of the Land Title Act 1994 and ss 280 and 281 of the Land Act 1994.

The purpose of these notices is to advise interested parties that a matter authorised under the relevant Act exists. These notices are entered as administrative advices on the relevant title for the lot that is the subject of the notice.

The entry of an administrative advice may prevent further dealings with the land being registered. This is determined by the legislation authorising the entry of the administrative advice.

Deposit and removal fees will apply unless there is a statutory exemption.

Administrative Advices Which May Prevent Registration of Dealings

Notice under Miscellaneous Legislation [52-0005] Entered on title – ADMIN NOTING.

In some instances the legislation under which a notice of this type was entered may prevent registration of a dealing. For general information about notices under miscellaneous legislation see [52-0280].

The following notice is one example that may prevent registration of a dealing.

Notice of Suspension of Attorney’s Powers under the Public Guardian Act 2014

A Notice of Suspension is given to the Registrar where the Public Guardian, under the provisions of the Public Guardian Act, temporarily suspends the powers of an attorney for a person with impaired decision making capacity (the person) and appoints the Public Trustee as attorney for financial matters for the person during the period of suspension.

A Form 14 – General Request with a copy of the Notice of Suspension is required to be deposited. The Notice of Suspension also contains details of the appointment of the Public Trustee as attorney. The Notice of Suspension is recorded on the relevant title.

The notice will remain on the title until the person is no longer the holder of the interest.

2Notice of Action under the Land Title Act 1994 [52-0010] Entered on title – NTCE OF ACTN.

The following procedures relate to administrative advices notified in respect of caveats lodged under Part 7 Division 2 of Land Title Act (the Act).

Section 126 of the Act makes provision for caveats to lapse. Exceptions to the lapsing provisions are set out in s 126(1) of the Act. For further information on these exceptions, see ¶[11-0170].

Page 4: Land Title Practice Manual Part 52 Administrative Advices

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–2

To prevent the lapsing of a caveat, a caveator must start a proceeding in a Court of competent jurisdiction to establish the interest claimed under the caveat. The caveator must also notify the Registrar, in the way the Registrar requires, within specified time limits that a proceeding has been started, and identify the proceeding. The notification is lodged as a notice of action. For further information on the specified time limits, see ¶[11-0190].

The notification must be by way of Form 14 – General Request which must clearly identify the caveat, the court action number of the proceeding, and all relevant titles. A copy (see [60-1030]) of the originating proceeding issued out of a court of competent jurisdiction and showing the court action number must be deposited with the Form 14. No deposit fee is payable. A copy of a court order that establishes an interest claimed under a caveat may be used in lieu of a copy of the originating proceeding even if the court order was made before the caveat was lodged. A copy of the originating proceeding or a copy of a court order deposited with a caveat is not considered sufficient to ‘notify the Registrar’ as provided for in s 126(4)(b) of the Act.

The entry of a notice of action as an administrative advice on a title does not automatically prevent a caveat from lapsing, as there are other factors which determine the effect of a notice of action, namely:

(a) whether the notice was lodged within the prescribed time; and

(b) whether the claim and grounds are reflected in the proceedings.

If either of the above factors is not met, the notice will not have any effect on the caveat. A requisition will be issued for the notice to be withdrawn from the registry within seven days. If a deficiency other than those mentioned above is found in the notice during examination, a requisition will be issued for rectification within twenty eight days. For further information see ¶[11-2010] and part 60 – Miscellaneous, esp ¶[60-0030].

Removal

If a dealing being registered has the effect of removing a caveat from the title, the Registrar will also remove any notice of action which is associated with that caveat.

2Caveatee’s Notice under ss. 126(2) and (3) of the Land Title Act 1994 [52-0020] Entered on title – NOTICE.

The caveatee under a lodged caveat may serve a notice on the caveator to commence a proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction, within 14 days of service of the notice, to establish the interest claimed in the caveat (s. 126(2) of the Land Title Act). For the purpose of the above provision, the notice is taken to be served on the caveator if it was served on the solicitors firm that lodged the caveat and the caveat was signed by a solicitor from that firm.

The Act defines a caveatee as a registered proprietor of the lot, or someone (other than the caveator) who has an interest in the lot.

Section 126(3) of the Act further requires a caveatee to notify the Registrar within 14 days of the service of such notice on the caveator. The notification to the Registrar must be made by way of a Form 14 – General Request. A deposit fee is not applicable. A copy of the notice which was sent to the caveator must be deposited with the notification to the Registrar.

The notification by the caveatee to the Registrar must provide:

(a) sufficient information to link the land and the caveat to the notice; and

Page 5: Land Title Practice Manual Part 52 Administrative Advices

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–3

(b) details of how the notice was served (by post, by hand, by fax, etc) on the caveator to determine lapsing provisions under the Act.

No deposit fee is payable.

If the caveator does not commence a proceeding within the 14 day period and notify the Registrar, the caveat will lapse (s. 126(5) of the Land Title Act).

Removal

When a dealing being registered has the effect of removing a caveat from title, the Registrar will also remove any caveatee’s notice which is associated with the caveat.

1Notice of Pecuniary Penalty Order under the Criminal Proceeds Confiscation Act 2002 [52-0030] Entered on title – CONF PROFITS.

Section 197 of the Criminal Proceeds Confiscation Act authorises Queensland courts to levy pecuniary penalty orders against persons. Formerly, similar provisions were included in s 101 of the now repealed Crimes (Confiscation) Act 1989 (the repealed Act). Pecuniary penalty orders have the effect of charging property with the payment of money. Upon production of evidence of a penalty order from the courts, the Registrar entered an administrative advice in the register.

Section 40 of the repealed Act included authority for Queensland courts to make orders restraining dealings with property. Upon production of evidence from the court, the Registrar entered an administrative advice in the register. This practice no longer applies. The current procedure is for such orders to be filed with a caveat (see part 11, esp ¶[11-0066]).

1Notice of Restraining Order under the Drugs Misuse Act 1986 [52-0040] Entered on title – RESTR ORDER.

Restraining orders under the Drugs Misuse Act authorised by courts were issued with a view to impede a person from dealing with a property. Upon production of such a court order, the Registrar entered an administrative advice in the land registry.

This practice no longer applies. The current procedure is for such orders to be filed with a caveat (see part 11, esp ¶[11-0066]).

Registrar of Titles Noting under the Land Title Act 1994 or Land Act 1994 [52-0050] Entered on title – RT NOTING.

Section 34 of the Land Title Act allows the Registrar to keep information that the Registrar considers necessary or desirable for the effective or efficient operation of the register. Similar provisions are also included in the Water Act, and in s. 281 of the Land Act. Such information may include information given to the Registrar by another entity.

At the discretion of the Registrar, a noting will be recorded against a title for matters that are considered pertinent to the register.

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–4

1Notice of Offence under the Foreign Ownership of Land Register Act 1988 [52-0055]

Entered on title – RT NOTING.

Section 11 of the Foreign Ownership of Land Register Act (the Act) requires the Registrar to maintain a Foreign Ownership of Land Register. If a person is about to be or has been charged with an offence under the Act, a restraining order can be issued in respect of that person’s interest in land (s. 38 of the Act). The order is then recorded by the Registrar in the relevant land register as a Registrar of Titles Noting under the Land Title Act or the Land Act.

No other instrument or document can be registered with respect to that interest without the consent of the Minister, or until the order has been revoked or discharged (s. 38(7) of the Act).

2, 3Water Allocation Notice under the Water Act 2000 [52-0060] Entered on title – 73B NOTICE.

Under the provisions of the Water Act (the Act) when the chief executive of the department administering the Act prepares a water entitlement notice (WEN), the chief executive must also publish a notice stating where copies of the draft WEN are available. The public notice makes provision for existing interest holders to notify the chief executive that they intend to take action to have their interest recorded on the water allocations register (s 73(1)(b) of the Act).

When a WEN commences, any notices which have been given to the chief executive under s 73(1)(b) of the Act are entered by the Registrar of Water Allocations against the affected water allocation titles. Such notices remain effective until the earlier of:

• sixty business days from the date that the water allocation is recorded on the water allocation register; or

• the recording on the register of the interest mentioned in the notice.

During its currency, a notice may impede registration of dealings (s 146A of the Act).

Removal

Notices under s 73(1)(b) of the Act will appear on searches of affected titles for a period of one hundred days with a status of ‘current’, unless they are withdrawn or otherwise accounted for. The period after the expiry of sixty business days is a grace period, which is allowed for administrative purposes.

Any notice which remains on the water allocation title as current after the expiry of one hundred days from its date of lodgement will be automatically removed from title. Such notices once removed will only appear in historical searches, with a ‘not current’ status.

Notice of Appointment of Administrator under the Guardianship and Administration Act 2000 [52-0070] Entered on title – APPT ADMIN.

Tribunal Orders

Under the provisions of the Guardianship and Administration Act (the Act), the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal may appoint an administrator for a matter involving an interest in land of a person with impaired decision making capacity. The administrator must notify the Registrar (s. 21 of the Act) and provide a copy of the Tribunal’s order.

Page 7: Land Title Practice Manual Part 52 Administrative Advices

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–5

Subject to specific terms which may be included in the Tribunal’s Order, a notice will affect transactions in the name of the person and signed during the period of the order. Documents executed during the currency of the advice will be scrutinised to ensure that they are signed by the administrator, or sanctioned by the Tribunal. The notice will remain recorded on the title until the interest is no longer held by the person.

Sections 27 and 32A of the Act provide mechanisms for notifying the Registrar of changes to the authority of appointed administrator/s.

Court Orders

Chapter 11 Part 3 of the Act also authorises Queensland’s District Court and Supreme Court to appoint an administrator. The notification must be accompanied by a copy of the court issued order (see [60-1030] for information about depositing supporting documentation).

Removal

The Registrar will remove an advice under the Act from title when the interest affected is disposed of. Until such time as the interest is disposed of, any change, ending or revocation of appointment under the Act may be recorded on title if requested and the request is accompanied by a Tribunal/court order.

2Settlement Notice under the Land Title Act 1994 [52-0080] Entered on title – SETTLMNT NTC.

1Notice of Road Licence under the Land Act 1994 [52-0090] Entered on title – ROAD LICENCE

Where a road licence has issued under the provisions of s 103(1)(a) of the Land Act and it is not the subject of a registered covenant, a notation is entered on the title for the road licence and the title of the adjoining land.

Transfer

To comply with the Land Act, the road licence and the adjoining land must remain in the same ownership. Therefore, where the ownership of the adjoining land is changing (for example by a transfer, record of death or a transmission application), the following applies:

(a) the transfer or other form must also include the details of the road licence; or

(b) the transfer or other form must be accompanied by the appropriate form to also change the ownership of the road licence, to be registered at the same time.

Page 8: Land Title Practice Manual Part 52 Administrative Advices

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–6

See [1-2095] for information about a transfer of a road licence.

Plan of Subdivision

Where a plan of subdivision of adjoining land is lodged and the relevant title is noted with a road licence administrative advice, the following will apply.

• the noting will not prevent registration of the plan.

• the noting will be brought forward to only the new title for every lot that adjoins/abuts the road licence.

• the road licence must be allocated on the back of the plan in a similar manner as other administrative advices.

Intended lodgers should address the issue of the road licence with State Land Asset Management prior to lodging the plan, otherwise any following transfer may experience lengthy delays when lodged.

Administrative Advices Which Do Not Prevent Registration of Dealing 1Notice of Intention to Resume under the Acquisition of Land Act 1967 [52-0100] Entered on title – NOTC INT RES.

A constructing authority, within the meaning of the Acquisition of Land Act (the Act), may resume freehold land, an interest in freehold land or native title rights and interests in State land, for the purposes set out in the Schedule to the Act. The Act defines a constructing authority as the State, a local government, or a person authorised by an Act to take land for any purpose.

When a constructing authority proposes to resume, it shall serve a notice of intention to resume (NIR) upon any and every person who, to the knowledge of the constructing authority:

(a) will be entitled to claim compensation under the Act in respect of the taking of the land concerned; or

(b) is a mortgagee of the land (s. 7(1) of the Act).

2If the subject of the notice is freehold land or an interest in freehold land, the constructing authority shall forward a copy of the notice to the Registrar for noting on the relevant title (s. 7(4) of the Act). The notice must specify the purpose for which the land to be taken is required, and state the description of the land.

3If the subject of the notice is native title rights and interests in State land, the relevant area of the department administering the Act will forward a copy of the notice to the Registrar for noting on the title. In these cases s. 280 of the Land Act 1994 is relied on as it provides discretionary powers for the chief executive to record anything that the chief executive considers to be recorded to ensure the registers are usable records of State Land.

Notices of intention to resume are also authorised by provisions included in the Transport Planning and Coordination Act 1994 and the State Development and Public Works Organisation Act 1971. Notices under these Acts may relate to non-freehold land.

A NIR from a constructing authority (usually the Department of Transport and Main Roads or a local government) may contain preliminary information identifying the area of land that is to be taken. Typically this is a design plan and the NIR will refer to the area shown on that plan but subject to final design and survey. The first “taking of land” notice which is published in the

Page 9: Land Title Practice Manual Part 52 Administrative Advices

Department of Natural Resources and Mines Part 52–Administrative Advices Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)

Updated: 15 December 2017 52–7

government gazette will often also refer to the area taken as shown on the design plan. At a later date when the survey is completed, an amending “taking of land” notice is published in the government gazette. The second notice forms the basis of the resumption document lodged in the registry.

Details of the resumption, including the purpose are given in a taking of land/taking of easement notice made by the constructing authority and published in the government gazette.
